My rear caliper, cleaned and lubed, the pistons are now freer than they were, it is going to need a full strip, clean and replace the seals.

Explains the odd feeling from the brake pedal when I rode it on Friday, seemed to be fine for the first half of the TOGMIE rideout on Saturday, but leaving the pub car park, I could hear it. The disc was hot to touch.
